The WSU Tree Fruit Extension is hosting “Tree Fruit Days,” a series of presentations on agriculture and horticulture within North Central Washington.

Presentations in Wenatchee will land on Jan. 17-19, in Chelan on Jan. 21, and in Omak on Feb. 7, 2023.

Topics include pest and disease management, invasive species, climate impacts on pollination, discussions on agricultural labor, and evaluating emerging technologies.

Tree Fruit Extension Specialist Tianna DuPont said Tree Fruit Days is a great opportunity for producers to stay updated on research-based information within the agricultural industry.

"It's important to stay current right now," Dupont said. "We can't afford to not do our best horticulture and pest management practices. This is your opportunity to hear from our top researchers and extension folks."

Attendees are eligible for Pesticide update credits, and can earn up to 2-3 credits per session.

Pre-registration is not required for in-person sessions, but it is required for virtual participation in Apple, Pear and Stone Fruit Days and for the optional networking lunch.

Here is the schedule for the upcoming Tree Fruit Days:
